2014 Term 4 Reading

We are learning to choose a book to read when we are not working with the teacher in our group.

I am learning to work independently on an SRA Power-builder. We need to read a story, answer questions about the text, and work on words that come up in the text. I also learn a about Grammar and the way words are used.

I need to mark this myself off a marking card and graph my results.

I also need to take the responsibility of making sure I choose a book from the group box or from the books in the Library corner to read each night at home.

I am an independent learner.
